A Fresh New Look for Ski Wee

Grouse Mountain’s Snow School Director, Toby Barrett, wanted to refresh the Ski Wee experience at Grouse Mountain. He knew that children connect with animals and he thought that a wolf would be a powerful animal to connect to Ski Wee. “Wolves are pack animals. They are a naturally social animal. This is something that I think children in Ski Wee can identify with…the importance of the group dynamic, learning together, getting brave to try new things together.”

It takes a little magic to bring a vision like that to life and Grouse Mountain found its magician in a local artist, Tori Heavenor – a student at Emily Carr University of Art and Design. Tori’s passion is illustration, doodling and drawing and she has a special talent for creating animal characters with endearing qualities that jump off the page or wall.
